Vans Warped Tour

Once a year, the Coachella Valley becomes a rock pilgrimage centered around the Empire Polo Grounds Coachella Fest: Southern Californias Mecca for groove-worshiping youth, reviving echoes of legendary music festivals where their parents experienced freedom in communal ecstasy.The remaining 51 weeks are boring as shit.Trapped in a neck brace from a car accident, NorCal native Eric Taylor sat hella bored in Coachella, longing to pick up his neglected guitar. When he was finally able to play again, he put out an ad on Craigslist, looking to form a band. A couple of weirdos, flakes, and burnouts later, two (relatively) normal dudes finally answered the ad. New Jersey transplant Brad Ouellette, dusted off his drum set and Bouncing Souls records, and they started jamming in his garage in early 2010. L.A. emigrant Kevin Wiseman brought some bass to the mix, and Campaigning for Zeros was born.
